Abstract: The origin of deterministic diffusion is a matter of discussion. We study the asymptotic distributions of the sums $y_n(x)=su{m}_{k=0}^{n-1}psi(x+kalpha)$, where $psi$ is a periodic function of bounded variation and $alpha$ an irrational number. It is known that no diffusion process will be observed. Nevertheless, we find a picewise constant function $psi$ and an increasing sequence of integer $(n_j{)}_j$ such that the limit distribution of the sequence $(y_{n_j}/sqrtj{)}_j$ is Gaussian (with stricly positive variance). If $alpha$ is of constant type, we show that the sequence $(n_j{)}_j$ may be taken to grow exponentially (this is close to optimal in some sense, and one has $||y_{n_j}|{|}_{mathrm{L}^2}simma{x}_{0lekle{n}_j}||y_k|{|}_{mathrm{L}^2}$ as $joinfty$). We give an heuristic link with the theory of expanding maps of the interval.
